Truth about Facebook's 10 year challenge

The Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/t... Facebook's 10 Year Challenge is Just a Harmless Meme - Right? Recommended by Simon Légaré from Quebec City. Kate O'Neill on Wired Tweeted, "Me 10 years ago: probably would have played along with the profile picture aging meme going around on Facebook and Instagram. Me now: ponders how all this data could be mined to train facial recognition". Counterpoint - People already have access to your face from profile pictures (aren't private and time stamped). Point - If you were doing a study, you could mine the information looking for timestamps (not always taken near the date posted, sometimes profile pictures are not even human) or you could just ask people to do it for you.
